The same old stone—Iib- | eral receipts and slack outside support—was | still fastened about the market's neck and the first half hour saw a drop to T4%@74l4c under fairly liberal selling. The selling pressure was | weakened long enough for a recovery to T4%c, but trade was dull, and this attempt at recov. | ery was soon abandoned and a relapse to 7444@ | T4%c followed. During the last fifteen minutes May rallied sharply to 7c, at which the max | ket closed, %@%c lower. This rally was.due | mostly to moderate covering by shorts on a | market that had been sold to a standstill. Their | buying was based partially on the report of ex- ports that 106 loads had been taken for foreign | shipment and partly on a desire to take profits, | as it was belleved the foreign sales had been £ood prices and that much of the grain was of inferior quality. | ances in wheat and flour were equal to 535,000 | bushels, | Corn was stronger during part of the session, | although prices did bend a little early in sym: | pathy with the wheat weakness. The high price of hogs, coupled with buying by pro- | vision interests, the light country movement | and the continued poor grading of receipts were the ruling factors. " There was little or no ele- vator selling and a g0od cash demand, although business was as usual hampered by lack of cars. May closed %e higher at 38%@38%c. Oats also exhibited Individval strength, showing no attention to the wheat weakness. The excel- lent cash demand. small movement and a re- port that big interests were long 15,000,000 bushels were the supporting influences, The corn strength was also a help. May closed %@%c higher at 28%o. | “Provisions were dull and neglected, but | steady on a moderate run of hogs, firm prices | at the yards and a good cash demand. ~May | pork closed 15c higher; May lard unchanged, | and May ribs 2%e up. - The leading futures ranged as follows: Artlcles— Open.

Poultry and Game. Poultry continues to drag, the demand be- ing very light at the moment. Receipts of Dressed Turkeys are running very small, those yesterday being only eight cases. The de- mand for them {s limited. Hens and young Poultry are particularly dull and weak. Two cars of Eastern came in, makl five for the week, and sales were made at §5 for ning osing New York Metal Market. NEW YORK, Jan, 17.—Speculation in the local metal market was again dormant. Trad- ing was of a small hand-to-mouth character, with the general trend of prices downward. Tin, in response to weak cables trom London, where prices went off about £1 to £119 s, reacted about 35 points to-day and closed weak at $26 15 against $26 50, the closing figure of yesterday. Some small sales were made at the decline. Copper, though again scoring a loss of 125 6d in London to £71, ruled e: tremely dull In the local market, with a some- what easier undertone. Cl g prices were $17 for Lake Superior and $16 62% for casting ond electrolytic. Concessions were freely of- | fered on the latter metal. Lead was dull at $4 37%, the nominal price, while at London prices’ went off 3s 9d to £16 13s. Spelter ruled very dull all day at yesterday's decline, with rading very slow at $ 10g4 15. Iron mar- cts, both domestic and foreign, were rather quiet and largely nominal. Chicago Livestock Market.
